Los empleados hicieron que todo fuera mucho mejor. Es un hotel muy seguro, mucha presión. No les importa si les das propina o no, aún así brindan un servicio excelente.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

The beach was very crowded on Saturday and Sunday but during the week it was very relaxing and quiet.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

To pricey, no local food, I spend the High season up north on the coast by Montanita

5/5 - Excellent

Marcelo

The wether is beautifull

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

It's not great, it's just kinda ok. It's surrounded by garbage houses, gotta remember it's a 3rd world country. Montanitas is a must see, but other than that, what I saw was 3rd world buildings falling apart and tons of poverty.
